Coin Toss Simulation Task

Example: Probability of Outcomes for 10,000,000 Coin Tosses

About the Coin Toss Simulation Task

The Coin Toss Simulation task simulates the tossing of a specified number of coins. The results show the frequency and percentage of occurrences that the coin displays heads given a specified number of tosses.
